Within its walls everything beautitul in Art was col- lected; rare paintings and graceful stato ary Were met with at every turn; without, Nature’s beauties had command supreme ; and Artand Nature joined band in’ hand to make Rose ‘Perrace a very Eden, Lhave stated that we three lived there, yet Lean seareely say so with truth, for papa was never at home oftener than twice a week—sometimes not even so olten—and then he frequently lett us the same day. Hle was a tail, grand-looking man, with a profusion of light hair aud) Saxon-blae eyes, and a proud dignity of manner which never unbent save to ny mums, Me, he seldom noticed beyond smoothing my curls—they were ilways in a state of en tangled disorder at such times, to poor nurse Sally's dismay—and calling me a pretty child; sometimes, too, he would give mea yellow coin, of which I neither knew the name or use, but which Sally said was a sovercign; and when L went to chureh with her the next Sunday, we al- ways put it in the poor-box, I never saw manima but once a day ; rang for me and her coffee togethe nine o'clock every morning; and, fres trom Sally’s careful hands, f would: enter her presence to tind her reclining languid: ly on a lounge, elad in a charmiag wrap- per, with strong coffee on alight-stand be- ide her, and a pamphlet in her hand; tor years Tne saw niupniin any attitude but this, save as she passed me in the gar- den walk on her way to the carriage, which took her, every morning at ten, to the city, from whence she never returned, Sal- ly said, till midnight. Like papa, she sel- dom noticed me much, and seemed to re- quest my presence once a day rather from asense of duty than any pleasure she de- rived from my society ; but, as Twas allow- ed to sit quietly at ber feet, and wateh ry expression of her beautilul face, 1 was content, She was very lovely—not at all like papa, but possessing an oriental style of beauty most fascinating to me; she was a per t brunette, tall, and rather vulapioously shaped. LT remeniber, when Twas ditthe more than a wee toddler, standing before the great mirror in the long drawing-room, and gazing discontentedly at my yellow hair, china-blue eyes, and pigmy form. I was always a little, puny thing, and am so still, though not guite so smail as I was then, I think it must be plain to you that 1 knew very little parental care, and, in- decd, had it not been for nurse Sally, 1 she ly neglected; but she supplied the place ot father and mother both, and won my truest HORE TP ere might, and probably would, have been sad- | love.

Tothink, now, that you shonld go toddiing over the cold marble floor with these bare little footics! Shame on you, lassie!” And then she sat beside me, and sang old Scotch songs in a croening, monoton- ous tone, until L dropped quictly asleep. My papa was seldom present at these noisy assembliis, and by no means ap- proved of them, Sally said; but mania was wilful and had her own wey in this as in everything. to her final injury; forjas time wenton, papu’s visits to Rose Terrace were fewer than ever, and T noticed that mamma erew fretted, end her temper more uncertain daily. When about cight years old T was onc day sent for from the diawing room. It was Sunday. and my parents were both at home, ‘The unus summons threw me into quite a panic for a momert, but Psoon put on abold tace and sought their pre- senee.

She looked grimly down upon the embassador, “Who might be your mistress, young man 2?” The ‘young man,” looking much in- sulted at being addressed by bis right tile, ansivered grandly, “ Lady ‘Trevanion, of Treyanion Park ;? and as he spoke he bowed to the Indy he named, who watched us with evident in- terest. “Then tell Lady Trevanion, of Treva- nion Park,” said Sally, with spiteful em- phasis, ‘that Miss Melville, of Rose Ter- race is not commonly exhibited on the king’s highway. Stand out of my way, young man, Come bairnie.” * Anddragging me, much shocked at my kind norse’s rudeness after her, Sally walked rapidly back in the direction ot Rose ‘Terrace. “Why, Sally,” I remonstrated, when her slackened speed gave me breath, mn sure the lady was very kind, and E should have been pleased to speak with: her, Why wouldn’t you let me?” **T had my own reasons, barnie,” she briefly replied, and little more was said antil we reached home, With the fickleness of childhood my erief of the morning was quite subdued by the—to me—wonderinl adventure of the evening, and my last waking thoughts were of the beautiful lady who smiled so sweetlynpon me from her elegant carriage, me to London, » ~™- FSHe never would fave noticed me it £ hae not worn my pink plumes,” L thought “Tshall never go abroad without them, after this, whatever Sally may say !” To be Continued. Tis UBSIDENOE OF HAWAII The Honolulu correspondent of th New York Tribune, writing on the 19th August last before ho could have known ot the earthquakes in South America, from the 13th to the Léth of that month, says, ** It is believed that Hawaii is sinking into the ocean. — Eyer since June dast: unusually high tides have pri led along the south- erm and eastern shores, and it is now evi- dent that the islind has sunk a few fect on its southern shores, and a few inches onthe east and north. At Ilawaii there has been neticed a continned suecession of volcanic waves whieh cannot: be ae- counted for, ‘The first of these waves was observed at TLonulalu on the night of the Ith Atwust, and at almost the same mo- ment it was noticed 200 miles to the south- east. They were more powerful at those pmts of Hawaii whieh are nearest to the South American coast. They rolled: in ut the rate of three or four per hour for four days. They were not like the sweep of the furious breakers that lashed the shores during the April eruptions, bat! appe:redt to be effects of some gigantic oscillation actoss the Dacilic. The speed of tidal thquakes is very it. Lhe earthquake wave of April 20 transmitted trom ITawaii to Mexico, aliforniaand Oregon, a diste nce of trom 3,U00 to 6.00V0iniles in five hours, On 23rd of December, 1 a similar wave was transmited across the entire breadth of tha Pacific Ocean, trom Japan to California, in twelve hours and thirty-eight minutes — These facts convey a very impressive iden of the tremenduous power required to dis- turb the whole body of an ocean tor 10,- O00 miles by a movement distinct from the tidauls wing. movements through rt xr A Sixcuisn Story.—The death of Mr, BP. 1. Wiggin, proprictor of an hotel in Jermonday, England, took place lately, Mr. Wiggin retired to bed the previous bight in bis usual health and spirits, but at five o'clock in the morning he raptared a blood vessel. and in six hours he expired from exhaustion, It seems a remarkable presentiment ef his death was made known to him two months previously, when, to amuse his children, he drew upon a slate a collin, and wrote an inscription, a verbatim copy of which was inseribed on his coffin phue, on his interment, as: follows :— Frederick H.
